Reverse description A detailed architectural view of the Mardjany Mosque in Kazan dominates the central field, rendered in fine relief with its distinctive minaret and façade. Above the mosque in the field, the Cyrillic inscription «КАЗАНЬ» (KAZAN) appears alongside the date «XVIII в.» (18th century), indicating the period of construction. Along the upper rim, the curved legend «МЕЧЕТЬ «МАРДЖАНИ»» (THE MOSQUE «MARDJANY») frames the composition. The design is executed in the precise, engraved style characteristic of Russian commemorative proof coinage of this period.
